Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway

Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway

The Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway was conceived as a ribbon of green along the entirety of the Brooklyn waterfront providing access and connectivity to the waterfront with mobility options for coastal communities.

Background and History

19th Century docks fueled a robust industrial waterfront until decline began in the mid-20th Century. This waterfront corridor is now being adapted to new uses. ENTER PHOTO CREDIT THEN UNHIDE

Marvel Architects has assisted with design and realization of several nodes along the length of the greenway, including the Naval Cemetery Landscape, the plaza of Building 77, Columbia Street Space and the Columbia Street Connector.

Projects engage with the route of the greenway in different ways, whether passing by an adjacent site, fully passing through, or creating new connections.
